A page of baseless, false old stories (6,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aesops fables

'old stories' is the definition.
(ancient Greek fables)

'a page of baseless false' is the wordplay.
'page' becomes 'p'.
'false' is an anagram indicator.
'p'+'of'+'baseless'='pofbaseless'
'pofbaseless' anagrammed gives 'esopsfables'.
'a'+'esopsfables'='AESOPS FABLES'

I've seen this clue in The Times.
